quietsunshine visited I have been here twice, once in 1995 with my sister-in-law on a tour which was quite rushed (have to get back to the ferry) and another time with a spiritual group in 2004 when we walked up from the end opposite the visitors center where the first view was just the stones - truly magnificent. Standing among the stones I felt as if I knew their purpose and had been there millenia ago. We were with a local expert who took us also to several other smaller stone circles in the area, but I don't, at this late remove, remember exactly which ones.

The main Calanais site is rather cheesily known as "The Stonehenge of the North". This site forms a sort of Celtic Cross shape - the top photo shows it at dawn. Check the nearby sites list on our page for more details on each of the surrounding Callanish sites.

This single stone row is featured on the Stone Rows of Great Britain website - see their entries for:
Callanish, West;
Callanish, East;
Callanish, North; and
Callanish, South.
Each of the SRoGB entries include a description, a simplified plan of the alignments showing their relationship to the stone circle, photographs of the row, access information and links to other online resources for more information. The SRoGB also gives a link to the site excavation report dated July 2016.

The site is also recorded as Canmore ID 4156 (Callanish 1) and scheduled as SM90054 (Callanais or Callanish Standing Stones) on the Historic Environment Scotland website.

Re: Callanish I by Peter_Seamus_Gunn on Sunday, 09 July 2023

I'm a megalith lover on the Isle of Lewis. I have concerning news. A huge mega-turbine wind farm is being planned just three miles off the coast along the West Side of Lewis. That would be right alongside Clach an Truishel and would totally change the landscape as viewed from Callanish. Constantly moving 1000 foot tall megaturbines will replace the serene wild landscape.
Many megalithic sites in the West of Lewis would be dominated by turbines up to 350m tall including neolithic Steinacleit and other stone circles.
A proposed landfall of cables and a substation the size of two football fields at site of Clach an Truishel would completely industrialise both ocean and land.
Please raise your voices and come to the aid of our heritage for the sake of further generations.

In 2005, Emma Rennie of the Callanish Blackhouse Tearoom commissioned a high-resolution 3D laser scan of the Callanish Stones. A team of experts has now created a spectacular interactive version of Callanish I that can be walked around and used to visualise the combination of archaeology and astronomy!

The Callanish3D project lets you explore the Callanish I megalithic setting inside Stellarium, an Open Source planetarium for your computer.

Re: Geophysical survey uncovers star-shaped lightning strike by AngieLake on Sunday, 22 December 2019
(User Info | Send a Message)
Headlines in today's D.Mail:
"Bolt from the blue! How lightning strike inspired Neolithic builders to construct the iconic Callanish Stones on Outer Hebrides island some 5,000 years ago."
Read all about it here:
https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-7818885/How-lightning-strike-inspired-Neolithic-builders-construct-iconic-Callanish-Stones.html?ns_mchannel=rss&ico=taboola_feed_desktop_news

A geophysical survey around one of the stones has revealed a star-shaped pattern formed by one, or potentially more than one, lightning strikes that shook the earth.

New technology has exposed a pattern covering an area of 20 metres in diameter, which was buried until now beneath peat bogs.

The single stone, within 'site XI', is about 2.8km from the famous Callanish great circle in the island's Loch Roag area.
Geophysical techniques mapped buried features and the new evidence shows that this 1.5-metre-high stone was originally part of another circle with the lightning strike pattern at its centre.

.........
Professor Vincent Gaffney, one of the archaeologists told The Guardian: 'We're really excited.

'This was completely and utterly unexpected.

'Seeing the evidence for a massive strike, right in the middle of what now seems to be a stone circle, is remarkable.'

He added that a lightning strike could have hit a tree or a rock and may have been 'part of the game' in creating the stone circle.

Dr Richard Bates, a geoscientist at St Andrews University, who is leading the project, said the discovery was highly exciting.

In 2013 Hebridean archaeologist Ian McHardy made a discovery at Cnoc an Tursa – a rock formation beside the Callanish Stones site – which could reveal an ancient sun-powered calendar.

While waiting to meet fellow island archaeologist Margaret Curtis at the Stones one day last year, however, Ian witnessed an interesting interaction between the sun and Cnoc an Tursa.

“I’ve always wondered what Cnoc an Tursa was about, as although outside the main monument, it seems still significant,” said Ian.

“I was waiting for Margaret at midday on a bright, sunny day when I saw a shaft of light emanating out a good few metres from the base of the cave.

“As I watched, the shaft of light moved round like the hand of a clock as the sun travelled across the sky.”

Bid launched to solve the mystery of how the Callanish Stones came to be by Andy B on Saturday, 27 January 2018
(User Info | Send a Message)
A team of experts from the University of St Andrews have been tasked with finding an answer to one of Scotland’s most enduring mysteries -how the Callanish Stones on the Isle of Lewis came to be.

The stones, which attract thousands of visitors every year, are believed to have been erected in the Neolithic era around 5,000 BC and are arranged in the shape of a cross, with a central stone circle.

With the largest of the stones measuring two to three times the height of the average man, and weighing several tonnes, there has never been any definitive explanation as to how they were erected, or even their purpose, although many believe they were used in rituals to do with the moon and the stars.

Now, a team of academics hope to shed some light on the story of the stones, with funding of £25,000 from Highlands and Islands Enterprise.

Using the latest technology in geophysics, the team will look beneath the layers of peat to better understand how Neolithic man lived and why the stones played such an integral role in their lives.

Beneath the Peat with Dr Richard Bates by Andy B on Saturday, 27 January 2018
(User Info | Send a Message)
The Calanais Visitor Centre write: With a sharp increase in visitor numbers to the Visitor Centre in recent years, the facility is undergoing an ambitious redevelopment to turn it into a world class visitor centre.

The HIE fund is supporting Calanais (Callanish) Visitor Centre to work in collaboration with The University of St Andrews to use digital technologies to 3D scan the stone circles and to map buried features associated with the site. This will create a digital interactive experience of how the stones looked at various stages throughout times while bringing them to life. The digital remote sensing techniques will also provide information for the reconstruction of the entire landscapes surrounding the stones and place them in their original context.

Dr Richard Bates from The University of St Andrews, said: “We are bring together a team of geophysical, archaeological and landscape reconstruction experts to investigate Calanais in an attempt to understand more about the people who lived there and erected the stone circles. The concentration of stone circles around Calanais is remarkable, but it is also intriguing that there is the lack of other sites that could tell us about the people who lived there. By reconstructing the Neolithic landscape we hope to be able to find further evidence of the people and so ultimately to better understand the stone circles themselves.”

Victoria Harvey, project development officer at Calanais Visitor Centre, said: “Relatively little is known about the lives of our Neolithic ancestors some 5000 years ago. The ‘Beneath the Peat’ project will allow The University of St Andrews to delve underneath the current landscape to understand life in the Hebridean Neolithic. "

"Visitor numbers have grown rapidly at the famous Callanish Stones and here at the visitor centre. This has given us an opportunity to not only redevelop it but, to boost the heritage focus by sharing the story of the stones through modern technology. This fund helps us to develop and implement a highly innovative digital experience which helps us diversify as a social enterprise while offering more opportunities for local people and visitors to engage with their local cultural heritage.”

There was a talk on the 24 January 2018 which we missed unfortunately:
Venue: Breasclete Community Centre

Join Dr Richard Bates, a leading geophysicist from the University of St Andrews as he gives us a first look into the recent research project with the Calanais Visitor Centre.

Richard and his team will show us how cutting edge technology can reconstruct the landscape of Calanais from 5000 years ago. A first look at the research which has taken place in the recent months and you will be able to see some of the initial findings first hand.

I really missed the boat on this one, but here's my account of the 2006 standstill at Calanais:

http://westerngeomancy.org/articles/the-song-of-the-low-moon-2006/

I have created a Calanais landscape for the open-source astronomy program Stellarium.

You can download it (and other fine landscapes of interest to megalithophiles) from The Geomancy Group.

The viewpoint is from the end of the avenue, and you can actually simulate the standstill moon, complete with re-gleam, by setting the time/date to 11 June 2006.

Re: Calanais pronunciation by AngieLake on Tuesday, 08 October 2013
(User Info | Send a Message)
Peter May, author of the Lewis trilogy (The Blackhouse, The Lewis Man, and The Chessmen) gives a list of pronunciation of Gaelic in the back of The Chessmen (which I've recently finished).. and for 'Calanais' one would say "KAL-A-NEESH".

I'm looking forward to seeing his latest book of photos of Lewis - 'Hebrides', done in collaboration with a photographer called David Wilson.
